Wicked Ace Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 (edited) Has anyone tried filing or sanding a little off of the bump (part BP7) on the backpack hinge? I just took my VF-1S out of the box and don't want to be posting in the "what's wrong with my Yamato" thread, if you know what I mean. It seems like this hump puts a lot of stress on the hinge, so is it a good idea to take some material off of the bump?

hevangel2 Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 I did sand off the bump a little bit. But I think that's not the main problem. The main problem is the small retractable attenna. Try to put the attenna inside the completely without letting the small traingle part stuck out. That should solve your problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does the antenna cause stress on the hinge? If one were to eliminate the bump on part BP7, would the flip out tab (part BP4) adequately hold the backpack in the correct position?
